acrylic, pastel, fineliner
The background, executed in light pastel colors with acrylics, creates a feeling of lightness and airiness. It symbolizes the world of ideas, creative potential, and freedom of imagination. Bright neon splashes represent sparks of inspiration and creative thought.
However, the viewer's attention is drawn to a huge black hand. It hangs over a running girl, as if trying to catch her. This hand is a metaphor for our own thoughts, fears, and doubts that can haunt us, suppress creative impulses, and trap us. It is no coincidence that it is drawn with pastel - it can be easily erased with some effort.
The graphic girl, drawn with a simple fineliner, symbolizes ourselves, our vulnerability in the face of inner demons. She is afraid of her own fears and tries to run away instead of facing her thoughts.
The painting makes you think about the inner struggle that every person wages. It reminds us of the importance of awareness, the ability to manage our thoughts, and not let fears prevail over our true nature.
